Palestinians: Terrorism

Robert Largan: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what recent discussions she has had with her (a) EU and (b) US counterparts on the Palestinian Authority's alleged payment of monthly salaries to convicted Palestinian terrorists.

James Cleverly: No UK aid is used for payments to Palestinian prisoners, or their families or the "Martyrs Fund". Alongside Government of Israel and US we continue to deliver a clear and long-standing message to the highest levels of the Palestinian Authority that the prisoner payments system should be reformed so that it is needs based, transparent and affordable. Officials maintain a regular dialogue with the EU and US on this issue.
